Check Engine Light ON when engine is OFF in Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid - dealer says normal lamp test?

Hey everyone, I recently noticed something odd on my Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid. When the engine is OFF (ignition on/accessory mode), the check engine light stays ON. But once the engine actually starts/runs, the light goes away completely.

I took it to the Chrysler service center and they told me it’s just a normal “lamp test” and nothing to worry about. They said many warning lights come on briefly before startup to confirm the bulbs/systems are working.

Still, I’m a bit worried because I never paid attention to it before. No codes, no drivability issues, and the light disappears immediately when the engine is on.

Is this normal behavior on the Pacifica Hybrid? Anyone else noticed the same thing?

I’m looking at a 2021 Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid with 80k miles Ziegler is offering a MaxCare warranty (5yr/60k) for $6ktrying to decide if it’s worth it or overpriced. From what I understand, MaxCare is a genuine Mopar-backed extended warranty that covers most mechanical and electrical components (excluding wear items), where you pay a deductible per visit and the dealer handles approval and billing, often with perks like rental and roadside assistance. I know these vans can have electronics/hybrid issues, but some major hybrid components may already be under factory warranty, so I’m debating between paying $6k upfront vs just saving that for repairs since I plan to keep the van long-term anyone have experience with MaxCare or repairs on a PacHy after 80k?
